By Bridging Loan Directory 14th November 2024

Market Harborough Building Society has named Mark Record as its new non-executive director, hot on the heels of Francesca Hampton’s appointment to the Board last month.

With over 35 years experience in the sector, Mark is currently an adviser to multiple Boards and has held high profile Chief Information Officer roles at Masthaven Bank, Co-operative Bank, RBS and Barclays.

He joins Market Harborough, an award-winning society specialising in complex mortgage cases and bridging finance. In touch with broker’s needs, the lender holds a Feefo Platinum Trusted Service Award and won Best Short-term Lender at the Financial Reporter Awards, which is voted for by brokers.

The building society also offers a range of competitive savings products.

Commenting on his appointment, Mark said:

“I’m passionate about building high performing teams and working with leaders with strong values and ethics.

So, I’m thrilled to be joining Market Harborough where our values are closely aligned.

I can’t wait to help build on its existing success to deliver even more benefit for its customers, colleagues and communities.”

CEO Iain Kirkpatrick added:

“Mark will be an excellent addition to our Board, as he is well-versed in diverse areas of banking including challenger banks, strategy and transformation programmes.

His experience will help us to further drive growth in 2025, ensuring we continue to do the right thing for our customers and broker partners through our Thrive! Agenda.”
